• Supporting integration of analog models with digital and mixed-signal platforms, enabling seamless system-level verification and emulation.
• Mentoring and guiding junior engineers, sharing best practices and fostering a culture of technical excellence.

What You’ll Need:

• MSc or higher degree in Electrical Engineering or related field, with 8+ years of direct experience in SerDes/high-speed analog design and system modeling.
• Expert proficiency in Verilog-A and System Verilog for analog behavioral modeling, simulation control, and data capture.
• Strong programming and scripting skills in TCL, Perl, C, Python, and MATLAB for design automation, data analysis, and model development.
• Proven hands-on design experience with SerDes sub-circuits: receive equalizers, data samplers, voltage/current-mode drivers, serializers/deserializers, VCOs, phase interpolators, DLLs, PLLs, bandgap references, ADCs, and DACs.
• In-depth familiarity with transistor-level circuit design and sound CMOS design fundamentals.
• Comprehensive experience with EDA tools for schematic entry, design verification, and layout; advanced knowledge of SPICE simulators and simulation methodologies.
• Ability to analyze, visualize, and present complex simulation data to diverse audiences.

Who You Are:

• Innovative thinker with a passion for technical excellence and continuous learning.
• Exceptional communicator, able to convey complex concepts with clarity and confidence.
